Amigatronics<p><strong>Actualización: DOSBox AGA y&nbsp;RTG</strong></p><p><strong>DOSBox</strong>, el renombrado emulador de MS-DOS, se actualiza en su port para <strong>Amiga</strong> gracias al trabajo del desarrollador <strong>NovaCoder</strong>. Dos nuevas versiones, optimizadas para AGA y RTG, permiten a los usuarios disfrutar de la vasta librería de juegos y aplicaciones de PC directamente en sus sistemas.</p><p>La versión <strong><a href="http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/DOSBox_AGA" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">DOSBox AGA v0.74.013</a></strong> está diseñada para Amigas equipadas con el <strong>chipset AGA</strong> y un procesador 68060 rápido. Requiere <strong>AHI</strong> (versión 4.18 recomendada) y ROMS 3.1. Ofrece un port <strong>SDL</strong> nativo para AGA, soporte MIDI y sonido AHI, así como modos de pantalla completa y ventana.</p><p>Por otro lado, <strong><a href="https://aminet.net/misc/emu/DOSBox_RTG.lha" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">DOSBox RTG v0.74.023</a></strong> se dirige a Amigas con tarjetas gráficas <strong>RTG</strong> y un procesador 68040 (se recomienda un 68060). Al igual que la versión AGA, necesita AHI 4.18 y ROMS 3.1. Sus características incluyen un port SDL optimizado para RTG, soporte <strong>MIDI</strong>, sonido <strong>AHI</strong> y las opciones de visualización a pantalla completa o en ventana.</p><p><strong><a href="https://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=96151" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fuente</a></strong>.</p><p><a

XD</p><p>I am:</p><ol><li>Deeply nostalgic about the 16-bit era of computing and its graphic limitations</li><li>Deeply concerned that I use as little of my instance admin's (admittedly ample) data storage as possible</li></ol><p>So, I almost never post videos, and when I post pictures, I either post as very compressed <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/webp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WebP</span></a> (not my favorite image format, but it's the best format for low-fidelity/high-compression images that <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/gotosocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GoToSocial</span></a> supports), or "lossy"-compressed PNGs.</p><p>I have a utility on my phone (<a href="https://f-droid.org/packages/ru.tech.imageresizershrinker/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Image Toolbox</a>) that can reduce PNG files by reducing the number of colors, but it's not great at picking the colors.</p><p>When I have the time and presence of mind to do so, I will take the PNG into GIMP and either use its conversion function to reduce the number of colors (to something like 32 or maybe 64, possibly as low as 4 or 8), or (like in the above case) I'll actually hand-select the important colors in the image and tell GIMP to reduce the image to just those colors.</p><p>In this case, the original screenshot PNG was 83KiB, which I managed to bring down to 16KiB through the manual color reduction process (down to just 6 colors).</p><p>If you peruse the <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/lossypng" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LossyPNG</span></a> hashtag, there are plenty of examples. Some are obviously reduced (and are reminiscent of graphics on 16 bit machines like the <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> or <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/atarist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtariST</span></a>), but some look quite good for how severely reduced they were.</p>

Daniel<p>In an article, Keith Monahan describes how he converted a standard 50 Watt power supply unit, which costs around 50 euros, so that he can use it as a replacement power supply unit for his Amiga 500. The model used was the GP50A13D-R1B from Meanwell.</p><p><a href="https://www.amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2025-04-00047-EN.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2025-</span><span class="invisible">04-00047-EN.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/powersupply" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>powersupply</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Amiga500" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga500</span></a></p>
Daniel<p>The relatively new "Quite OK Audio Format" (QOA) is a lossy audio compression format.</p><p>According to Grzegorz Kraszewski, this could also be a good alternative for the Amiga in terms of computing effort, quality and file size. He has implemented a decoder in M68k assembler and written a tool that converts QOA files into uncompressed AIFF:</p><p><a href="https://www.amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2025-04-00055-EN.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2025-</span><span class="invisible">04-00055-EN.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Amiga" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amiga</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/audio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>audio</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/codec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>codec</span></a></p>
